WEBSHOTS is back!
 
I am so happy! I loved webshots and was really bummed when it was closed down
and the replacement, Smiles, was HORRIBLE, took a lot of work to get it off my computer.

Today I got a happy birthday from webshots!! (not my birthday, but that was the day I used there)
Oh my gosh...I'm gushing, but their wallpapers are wonderful.

I haven't checked to see if we can upload images into our own place, I probably won't do that again :)
but I'm so happy!

Thanks for the info, I had completely forgotten about webshots. I used to have it and loved all the great photos

Yes, thank for the info. I haven't been out there in so long I totally forgot about it. Will have to check it out and see what I have out there.

thanks for the update. I used it several years ago until it changed to Smiles. It never did work right after that. I just downloaded it and am trying to get it set up. For some reason I can't get it to set the wallpaper but I'm not the most computer savvy person either. I'll keep playing with it or just contact their support.

Thanks for sharing, I've missed it, too.

this has, actually, been available for a while now. i have checked my old link recently just out of curiosity. this is a free image site. images to use as desk top wall paper. its not the online photo storage/sharing site we all used for so many years. i haven't gotten too serious about finding a webshot type replacement that was as easy to load & share pics as the old webshots was. i have accounts at two other sites, photogra & snapfish. i like both. i had photogra account before friend talked me into trying webshots. i liked their display style. snapfish has a blog section like dropbox & others that were so popular for a while. they were bought out just as webshots was bought back, fun free rides that have come to an end. i'll probably just stay with photogra now for photo hosting/sharing & start using the snapfish site more again because i like the way it's set up, ease of use and the blog. but blogging takes a lot of time/work & i am, essentially, lazy. :cool:
